Julie has a special interest and invaluable experience in working with children and young people. It has been Julie’s aspiration to work with and help young people who have emotional, social and behavioural problems in order that they lead a more productive and fulfilling life than they are currently able. For the last six years Julie has worked with 10 – 19 year olds in main school, residential SEBD (social, emotional and behavioural difficulties) and therapeutic schools. This has included behavioural and learning support and guidance for young people with special needs, learning, social, emotional and behavioural difficulties. Through this Julie has also worked with parents, guardians, professionals and outside agencies involved in the care of young people and their families. Previous to this Julie worked supporting and running playgroups as well as helping out at primary school.

Julie has had much experience of traditional ‘talking cures’ and sees they have a place, but feels passionate about finding a complimentary therapy that is more efficient and effective that can work alongside these. This therapy would reduce or bypass the need for going through the ‘story’ over and over again which often leaves us in more distress and turmol as well as being a very lengthy process.

There is much to gain from going over our stories, we see and process our part in things and put things into context and perspective. Opinions, views and modelled behaviour of others that we have internalised as the truth and as our own we realise are untrue and do not belong to us. Without the need to overcome the need to psychological barriers such as repeated negative behavioural patterns, denial and self sabotage and 'opening cans of worms'. We begin to realise that thoughts and feelings are not 'rea'l, we carry them around in us and think they are real but we can modify these through various methods such as….traditional and complementary….

but we can modify these through various methods such as….traditional and complementary…There is now much research that shows that our emotions are stored in our cells (see Links) and not just in ours minds.
